Belton Farm Great British Cheesemakers Stretching back over three generations, the Beckett family have championed farming and cheesemaking traditions in the heart of Shropshire.

At Belton Farm we’re passionate about making great tasting classic and contemporary British Cheese. Award-winning, handcrafted cheese with real character and subtle complexity. Cheese made to entice the taste buds, marrying unique depths of flavour with tantalising textures. An independent family-run business, located in the stunning Shropshire countryside, cheese has been made at Belton Farm by the Beckett family since 1922. We are grounded in our heritage and rural surroundings but also have the ambition and capability to innovate, move forward and deliver for both our customers and consumers.

Ever wondered what goes into making our cheese? It starts with a little care, a lot of grass and some very important cows.🐄🌿

Long before our cheese reaches your cheeseboard, it starts in the fields, with the farmers who care for our cows, our countryside and the quality of every drop of milk.

At Belton Farm, all our milk comes from a dedicated group of local dairy farmers within just 25 miles of our dairy. Sharing our commitment to animal health and welfare, their cows spend at least 180 days a year grazing outdoors, while our farmers care for the land that sustains them. Fresh milk is collected daily and brought straight to our dairy, ready to be crafted into exceptional British cheese. As a fourth-generation family cheesemaker, we’re proud of over 100 years of tradition, but we’re always looking to the future, too. From supporting our local farming community to caring for the countryside around us, we believe looking after the land today matters for generations to come.

Because great cheese starts with great milk, and great milk starts with great care. 🦊🧀🌱
